Tents and RV

2 days ran us $32 power right next to the cement RV pad and grassy shaded areas abundant. Camp host wasn't visible, the next morning they were very understanding in letting uz stay another night. 24 hour showers and a firepit wirh water. Dont let the 5pm cut off for the office scare ya off, the gate does close at 9pm so give em a hollar.

It's a gem for us!

A lot of perks with this $20 a night campground. You have access to the trails and historic park, views of the river, and electric and water hookups. One dump station, but for the price we can't complain. Had a lot of fun at our stop there!

Great private spot!

Initially planned to stay two nights, but made it four! Beautiful, quiet campground. Had separate men & women's bathrooms, w 4 or 5 toilet stalls and maybe 4 showers (not all worked well). Each site was big and never felt too close to other campers. Well kept property (bathrooms run down - but not gross). Campground inside of park w several walking/hiking trails. Very tranquil. Each spot (maybe 40 spots) had w/e w dump station on way out. No more than eight campers while we were there.

Favorite Secret

This is a great little place to hide away for a few days and just enjoy the outdoors. It is a National Historic Site with preserved/restored sites of historic French and early American forts from the 1700s-early 1800s. There are 39 sites. Most are big-rig friendly. There is room for tents as well. The is one group site. All sites have 50/30/20 power and water. A dump station is located at the entrance to the campground. The bathhouse showers have terrible shower heads, but are functional. There is a boat launch. There are two hiking trails in addition to the large open areas in the park. There are frontier re-enactments at various times of the year. RV fees are $20/night and a discount is available for military and seniors. We enjoy this park often -but keep it a secret just between us.

Very Quiet

This park is very quiet with deer walking through in the early morning and late afternoon. Never crowded. Older park but nice bathrooms.

Historic Park, small campground

While this is a neat park to visit, there is limitedcamping available here. There are 39 RV sites with water, electric (dump station provided as well), grills, picnic tables and a paved pad not ideal for tenting. However, there are nice restrooms with clean hot showers.

Given the feel of this facility and its amenities, I feel as though this is primarily a day use facility. Full of historical buildings, interpretive information and other artifacts. This is a popular spot for school field trips, so if you're visiting during the school year don't be surprised if there are kiddos running around.

Whether you are camping or not, admission is only $2/person and there is a nice visitor's center full of helpful information to help understand the significance of the park.
